It's kind of a cross between a hostel and a wooden capsule hotel. You sleep in wooden capsules but you've got the common areas upstairs and on the main floor. They have wi-fi. And best of all, they're a 2 minute walk from the Toei Shinjuku Akibonobashi stop.
When I first started going there, they had no curfew. When I was there a year ago last March, they had a curfew
Makes it hard to have fun over there if you're worrying about a curfew. Other than that, this is the hostel I like. Privacy AND social...
I actually stayed there last summer. I thought it was great in terms of the privacy you get in the capsule beds. When I was there there was no one using the common area which didn't seem very welcoming.
I hadn't even noticed there was a curfew, I think maybe it only lasts 2 hours? I think I just managed to stay out late enough every night that they were back open again!
